Revolutionizing Real-Time Visibility on Construction Sites

RTLS on Construction Sites

WISER's asset tracking system revolutionizes real-time visibility across construction sites. By harnessing a versatile UWB wireless arena, WISER facilitates seamless adjustment of security zone entry points, storage areas, and safety measures without necessitating physical alteration of tracking hardware on-site. Our on-premises solution consistently and accurately delivers data and security while eliminating concerns about data latency and network reliability. Integration with other operational systems enhances efficiency by precisely tracking any desired item on-site, whether it be inventory, equipment management, personnel time-in and time-out, or other elements. This comprehensive solution enables companies to effectively oversee multiple aspects of the construction site concurrently, all while minimizing costs.

THE PROBLEM: SAFETY AND SECURITY RISKS

Construction sites of considerable scale encounter difficulties in managing inventory and equipment, overseeing access, and enforcing safety measures. Misplaced items and equipment lead to significant delays and increased costs, while unauthorized access introduces risks such as prolonged security and muster checks and potential hazards for workers. Moreover, ensuring safe evacuation and rescue procedures during emergencies necessitates dependable location tracking, an aspect where traditional methods frequently fall short, particularly in hazardous environments.

THE SOLUTION: WISER’S ASSET TRACKING SYSTEM

WISER’s UWB localization system thrives in cluttered and complex RF-reflective industrial sites offering unparalleled reliability and ease of deployment. Equipped with WISER Tracker Tags, site inventory, equipment, staff, visitors, and contractors can be instantly located and monitored in real-time. Managers gain immediate alerts if anyone enters restricted zones, enhancing site safety and security.

WISER’s system enables the creation of software defined zones and perimeters, even in areas with no walls or physical barriers that can be quickly and easily adjusted as the build environment develops. Moreover, it allows tracking of construction materials, equipment, tools, and workers both indoors and outdoors, ensuring comprehensive monitoring across the site.

Ideal Solution for Construction Environments

The WISER Systems eliminates the need for pre-existing networked infrastructure in construction settings by establishing its secure network from a host computer, saving time and money while improving reliability and up-time. Through integration with WISER’s real-time data stream, companies can tailor alerts for zone and perimeter violations, thereby enhancing situational awareness and response capabilities. Specific access roles can be customized for different personnel, optimizing security and workflow management. For instance, if a contractor or visitor enters a restricted area, immediate alerts can be dispatched from the WISER System to site management or security personnel.

THE RESULTS: HEIGHTENED SAFETY AND SECURITY; REDUCED THEFT AND LOSS

WISER’s Locator system ensures heightened safety by providing sub-meter precision in locating workers and assets. Managers can proactively address safety concerns, mitigating risks before they escalate. Additionally, the system reduces monitoring costs and streamlines inventory management and equipment location procedures by automating location and tracking.

The flexibility of the system extends to both the hardware and software. End-users can adjust WISER’s wireless arena at will, adding, arranging, or subtracting devices to fit the needs of their environments. This non-permanent setup reduces upfront installation costs significantly and allows system use even in environments that evolve and change frequently. Furthermore, end-users can create zones and safety perimeters in WISER’s software quickly and easily, allowing these to be adjusted and changed to fit specific projects, layouts, or schedules.
